How the eff does one approach an attractive women?

Options
It may be due to my extreme online gaming that I am the worlds most socially awkward group person. But not a thousand complements or tequila shots could make me approach nearly any lady who I had not yet been acquainted with.

I have been told it's just confidence etc etc, different methods such as ignoring her or just going straight up to her, but getting shut down by someone just frikken , makes me want to crawl in a whole.

Any tips from ladies or you baller guys? Do I just wait until I have cut to my ideal body shape, invest in ruphies (just kidding) ... Gosh.

    Mate all it takes is Confidence, being yourself, being respectful and talking to them like a person not like an object!

    Honestly just get to know them and just listen to them!

    Sonny Jim boy I've devoted the majority of my life to rotting in front of my xbox.

    After years of shrieking at young plebians that I am in fact breastically endowed and not a 14 year old yet to hit puberty I should probably be a socially inept sausage.

    My advice is to get your booty out there and start schmoozing those hotties, if you don't try you'll never know.

    Try the same way as you approach one who is just average looking.

    avoidance is normal, fear is normal, it's just doing it that will break the cycle for you

    we're all afraid of rejection, and guess what, that girl is afraid of rejection just as much as the next person. just remember we're all human, we all share virtually the same feelings

    It's purely a numbers game. Some girls will like guys like you and some won't. The more girls you talk to the better your odds are of finding one that you get along well with. Don't be phony. Just be yourself and be confident in that.

    You've just got to get out there and try, be as confident as you can, smile and be friendly. If she's nice then she will talk back, and if she doesn't then she isn't worth knowing anyway.

    Make a habit of trying to be friendly to all sorts fo people in all sorts of situations, and it will start to feel natural when it comes to approaching an attractive woman. Take the pressure off and just enjoy meeting other people... including attractive women... they're juse people too you know... and most of them are pretty friendly

    but on a serious note, unless you can't talk at all to a girl (freeze up or something) the first girl you talk to will probably like you very much. just go up to one and talk about the weather...such an easy way to start talking with a girl.

    I remember reading a book called "The Pick-Up Artist" where this guy turned very socially awkward guys into pick up kings.

    They all started by walking around the city all day, just saying hello to women, any woman they could possibly say hello to, or asking for the time, or asking for directions, etc etc etc. After a few days of saying hi to hundreds of women, they were desensitized to the process of approaching a woman they didn't know. And then progressed to women at clubs, etc.

    So apparently practise = confidence.

    Good luck and remember to smile genuinely. A nice smile goes a long way! :smile:

    Start with "Hi." Maybe add a genuine compliment. If shes a decent person (and interested), the conversation will grow from there organically.

    Practice.. on anyone and everyone, regardless of whether they are male, female, in your age bracket or not, and regardless of whether you find them attractive. The art of small talk, being comfortable socially and confident in general is not a natural skill for everyone. The lovely part is.. you can practice on people everywhere.. holding open doors, smiling, saying hello, making small talk in the grocery store line up. All of these things should help you feel less awkward.

    Fake it till you make it. Once you have some confidence, then look to approach women. I honestly wouldn't recommend you do so until you have managed to be comfortable socially for a while.

    Well, I can tell you how NOT to do it................ definitely DO NOT follow her into the women's locker room, and try to tell her she's pretty! I've had ZERO success with that method!!! :wink: :drinker:

    It really helps if you find a good conversation starter. At a bar, sit near the girl and ask her what kind of beer she's drinking (assuming it's obviously not Bud or Miller) and if it's good, or cheer along with her if there's a sports game on, or say "I overheard you saying _" if she says something you could comment on, ask her to take a picture of you and your friends and then talk to her after... Anything to just get her attention and then get a conversation going. If she very obviously doesn't want to engage you in conversation, move on, but otherwise just start talking to her. If you click, ask for her number.

    Sometimes it's easier to meet someone not at a bar - we feel less like you're trying to get in our pants and more like you may be interested in us. If you see a girl at a coffee shop reading a book you've read, ask her how she likes it. But whatever you do, be friendly and not creepy.

    Girls like free drinks. Money helps.

    Honestly, I suck at it, so I am last one to give advice.

    Just start by saying hi, asking her how she is. Don't try to pick her up, but try to talk to her.

    You can't be afraid of rejection, it's going to happen, it happens a lot to me.

    Good luck man, it's not easy..

    Try, "Hello, How are you today?"
